The DF250RTB is not an illegal copy of the Heist. Take a look at the two bikes and you will see that there are many differences. Don't believe all that the salesman tells you.
Take what the Heist people say about their bike with a grain of salt.
I asked them to correct their misleading statement about their engine being 250cc on their blog and they deleted my message. It's a 229cc 167FMM engine as identified in the Cycle World article.
barnone he was forthcoming about the engine being a 229cc with me on the phone. PIT is the actual national distributor of the Bike. I'm going down on Friday with my brother to get a feel for things. Will be letting you guys know more
the listing on the registry is an old listing that is no longer valid
Gordo,
I sent a email to the guy that I bought my bobber from to warn him about the registration problem in NJ,NY, and PA. Interested to hear his response.
Gordo:
What did they say the reason it cant be regged in NY, NJ ,PA for?
I just got off the phone with the manager (Justin) from countyimports and told him whats going on and told him to turn the truck around because I am not going to accept delivery. He assures me that I will be able to register here in NY and he has no idea on what the issue would be, so he is going to call the head DVM in Albany tomorrow and get back to me. I still don't trust it because if you couldn't get it regged in NJ there is no way in hell I am going to be able to reg it in NY. The manager of countyimports also said that NY was never an issue but NJ, and PA have been problem states... I don't believe that what so ever. meah this is starting to piss me off :P
this is the email I got from scooterdepot

Upon return of the product, we will issue you a refull refund totalling $2267.00
Gordo,
You can probably get a pallet at a Harley or Japanese bike dealer. I've done that in the past to ship a bike.
Or maybe the one it came in is in the shed?:icon10:
Built one with Some 2×4x8 & 2×3×8 studs I had when I Renovated the house & built the new kitchen. Pallet is built, I Bike is Secured, Gas drained, battery popped, & pegs Mirrors all boxed up. Now all I need to do is shrink wrap and say bye-byeQuote:

Jape that pallet was dead upon arrival LoL
Unfortunate but at least they are saying they will refund your money, I will have to completely double check details before I buy. There is a Heist dealer about a hour from me, I might have to at least give a peak over see what they are asking and how it might feel. Im hoping to get 1500 for my sled and trailer to offset most of the cost but if I end up going with the Heist may take longer.
Barnone, mx-motorsports, have you heard anything about them, they are in miami with a showroom and warehouse carrying the dong fang, their price is a little higher then scooter depot and say they will beat any price by 10% not much of a deal breaker for me but if all that be true I might use them.
